The Walking Dead fans saw the introduction of Negan (played by Jeffrey Dean Morgan) in season seven of the AMC show, and he instantly made his mark on the residents of Alexandria. During his first arrival on the show he killed a number of Rick Grimes' (Abraham Lincoln) team - including Abraham Ford (Michael Cudlitz).

Negan star Jeffrey recently interviewed a number of The Walking Dead cast members on his show, Friday Night In with the Morgans - in which he speaks with actors alongside his wife.

One of these interviews saw Jeffrey talking to Michael Cudlitz - who has now been taken on as a director on The Walking Dead's season ten, and the upcoming season 11.

During his appearance on the lockdown chat show, the director was quizzed on whether he would put Jeffrey's character Negan "through the wringer" during his episodes as a form of revenge for killing Abraham.

To which he replied: "No. No. I want to put him through the wringer because it would be fun to watch, but not for revenge.

"That's the thing, is that people ask this question a lot when we do panels and stuff at conventions and they ask: 'What was the hardest scene you've ever done?'

"We loved that. When you guys think, 'that was so hard,' we love being emotionally available and going through things that we haven't gone through before.

"Or things that we have gone through before in a different way with amazing scene partners."

While it doesn't sound like Michael is going to intentionally take down Negan for revenge, it does seem like he wants to make him "emotionally available" whilst "going through" new things.
